Briefly, this error occurs when a user or client tries to perform an action on Elasticsearch but doesn’t have the necessary permissions. The roles assigned to the user or client do not allow the requested action. To resolve this issue, you can either assign the necessary permissions to the user or client, or use a user or client that already has the necessary permissions. Alternatively, you can modify the action request to fit within the permissions of the user or client.

localNodeInfo.prefix; originAttributes(threadContext; message; localNodeInfo); subject(authentication);
arrayToCommaDelimitedString(roleNames); action; arrayToCommaDelimitedString(indices.get());
message.getClass().getSimpleName(); opaqueId());
} else {
logger.info("{}[transport] [access_denied]\t{}; {}; roles=[{}]; action=[{}]; request=[{}]{}"; localNodeInfo.prefix;
originAttributes(threadContext; message; localNodeInfo); subject(authentication);
arrayToCommaDelimitedString(roleNames); action; message.getClass().getSimpleName(); opaqueId());
}
